    Tires that were pre-used.
    Bob B.

    So glad Darwin's is here in our neighborhood. This place is Familia. I feel so welcomed here and it's a lot of fun get tires here. I appreciate your team work and it's amazing to watch you all working so well together. It's inspiring. I had these rims I wanted on here and I drove down and asked if you could swap tires from my current wheels to these newer light weight Carrera II. Awesome value and service and prices that other tire shops can't compare. This is Family owned. These values matter. Thank you!

    Some of us can't afford to just always "buy new" when life throws us curve balls, but Darwin helps us get back on the road and keep driving safely when our wallets are thin. They have always been super fast, polite, and honest over the past 7+ years whenever I've needed their help For example: One of my tires blew-out on my morning commute to work, causing me to lose control of my SUV which ended up sliding sideways down I-90 at 70mph in the mountains near Snoqualmie. No bueno This ripped the tires off both rims on the drivers side, and then proceeded to chew up the metal of both wheels so badly that they were utterly destroyed. This is my commuter with 212k miles on her- so spending a lot of money on tires & wheels would be silly. I was able to buy two matching rims from a junk yard, then went into Darwin. Wasn't sure if the old tires were damaged, but thought that if they were that Darwin would have some decent used ones. Long story short, the old tires (that got pulled off the old rims while I crashed) were amazingly just fine and the guys at Darwin were able to mount them on the new(er) rims lickedy-split! Only charged me $12 and had me back on the road in 15 min?!? Woo-hoo! That was almost 3 years (and over 25k miles) ago, and the tires & rims are still going strong! THANK YOU Darwin!!!

    My very nice scratched up rim

    See all

    They are cheap and does good work. They installed my TPMS sensors and Costco programmed the sensors while rotating the tires for me

Before bringing my car in, I called and explained that I was confident the issue was the trunk latch. I asked about pricing and whether they had the latch in stock. I was told the first step would be to bring the car in so they could see if that was the problem. Once there, a mechanic tried slamming the trunk shut but it still wouldn't close. I was then told they needed to diagnose the issue for $140.00 to 170.00 At that point, I agreed because it sounded like they thought it might be something other than the trunk latch. Instead, I was charged $269 for a diagnostic, only to be told exactly what I already knew that the trunk latch was the problem. I don't understand why I was charged such a high diagnostic fee when I clearly explained the issue from the start. To make matters worse, I was quoted close to $800 to replace the trunk latch. For reference, the same latch for a 2016 Chevy Malibu LT 2.0 costs under $200 online. Between the excessive diagnostic fee and the inflated repair quote, I chose to walk away after paying the $269. They also claimed my battery was going bad, even though it was replaced just 7 months ago. Then today, I received a voicemail asking if I wanted to schedule work not just for the trunk latch and battery, but now spark plugs and struts issues that were never mentioned before. It honestly feels like they kept adding problems out of nowhere. I've had good experiences with them in the past, which makes this even more disappointing. Unfortunately, after this experience, I will not be bringing my car here again

    I pulled in to get a pre trip inspection and left with the blame for a broken shop window…read more Miscalculation on my part and lack of clear directional signage on the manager's part. Pulling my trailer in, I was initially skeptical about pulling into a lot with such constricted space so I opted to pull onto the sidewalk next to the building. Upon exiting my vehicle I was approached by whom I'm assuming was a manager. I explained that I was there for a free pre trip inspection and he began by telling me my tires on my trailer expired in 2011 which is very good to know...not so much for the dude who just sold me the trailer 2 days ago. Then he said he'd spot me around the corner of their building, I said I was fine but he insisted on assisting anyway. As I'm trying to proceed forward and to the left, I see him in the corner of my eye and he appears to be waving me to the right so I turn right, I hear a loud crash. The awning on my trailer broke their corner window. I got out of my truck to assess the damages and determined that I'd be able to dislodge by pulling straight back then pull further forward and slightly to the right until the trailer was clear of the building. I explained this to the manager as I was walking back to my truck. As I was getting in, my service dog is barking and growling frantically at the manager who was immediately behind me (I kinda wish he would've bit him ‍) I sat and began to reposition and this dickhead reached into my personal space, into my personal vehicle and snatched my car keys out of my ignition. Now my key fob will not arm/lock my vehicle...thanks dickhead! The police were called, I spoke with them, we reviewed my options and the dickhe...I mean manager insisted on calling a tow company instead of using his tire shop know how to resolve the problem. I apologized and explained that I had no ready funds available for a tow truck. After wasting the tow truck driver's time he finally went and got a floor jack and decided to be a part of the solution instead of trying to perpetuate the problem. I get it, I made a mistake, caused a pane glass window to break, I deeply apologize and I am accountable. Then you deliberately, forcibly and willfully violate my personal space and property and steal my car key! Me being black and disabled gives you NO RIGHT to violate my personal space or civil rights? I didn't fight his dumbass, I remained completely cognisant throughout the entire episode. The "manager's" lame ass excuse that I was going to get free and take off was absofreakinlutely pathetic to say the absolute least!! I did give the tow truck driver $100 for having wasted his time; it's the least I could do! I WILL BE SEEKING DAMAGES! P.S. Even though I'm only a 1st degree black belt in taekwondo, I had every f*cking right to protect myself and WHOOP your preppy little punk ass!! You're paid to be professional and you shit the bed Jr. Even the Renton police officer said you overstepped!

Yesterday I got a call from Chris stating that she couldn't find the price that was matched, and when I explained to her that it was a promo code that's shown on the product page, she said she wouldn't honor the price match because it was only a small amount more than what she pays for the tire. What's the point in having a price match policy if you refuse to honor it? Seems like this store is just greedy so suggest you look elsewhere when spending almost $2,000 on tires. I highly recommend Discount Tires, since both Renton locations have agreed to honor the price that Big O wouldn't!
